The U.S. attorney in Louisville said yesterday no one from the Justice Department has called to explain why his name was on a list of U.S. attorneys suggested for termination.

"I don't know why I was on the list. I really don't have a clue," Huber said during a press conference.

Huber, 64, said he called the press conference to tell the public that "we're still open for business and doing our jobs."

If Huber's name were on Sampson's list because of complaints about his performance, Huber is unaware of them, he said.

Huber said U.S. attorneys were told a couple of months ago that they could call the Justice Department and find out if they were on any sort of list or if "anyone said anything bad about you." But he said he did not make such a call and has never discussed his job performance with anyone in Washington.
